Sun 2nd Sept
Omega 11137 boar
MWF
ATT SE-G, modfied base plate
Gem S/S [ 5 ]
Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion

Though out for the day I had sufficient time to get decent no rush Shave. With a blade perhaps past its prime , I used the trusty MWF no fancy scent but it works for me. I must be really getting used to this razor [ 10th use ] as the Shave was not only smooth but I found it very easy to attain an ultra close finish.

Did not think 8 months ago I would be Shaving so successfully with an SE- G, but thanks to the loan of a modified base plate crafted by Paul @Blademonkey - I am at last enjoying it.

Heno de Pravia Glycerine Soap
Vitos Pre Shave Soap
Cyril R Salter Tallow Soap
Kent Infinity Synthetic Brush
Focus Dynamic R48 SE with a Gillette/Wilkinson Blade
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Aloe Vera Gel
Agua de Lavande Puig
Bronnley Lavander EDT

A lovely shave with the Focus. At long last I think I have cracked it! The Focus shaves my problem neck area better than most of my usual razors.
Three passes for a beautiful BBS finish:)
 
Rockwell 6C
Feather
Stirling 2-band Synthetic
Barrister and Mann Lime Lavender Cedarwood
Fine Clean Vetiver

Vacation time over.
Rockwell on 5 and feather on the third shave cuts down a 4-day beard with ease.
The soap is a standard BM performer - faultless, but the scent is very simple and ordinary. Not a bad one, but definitely not something I am used to from BM.
Finished with a stunning Fine AS.

Thanks mate , it's a new countertop cabinet I fitted along with a new basin and tap I plumbed in over the weekend.It's the downstairs lavvy (toilet).
The tiles,when I look at them - this pops into my head.

Laffin!:)

I do love the look of those tiles though, very cool....and you thought talking shaving was sad enough.:rolleyes:
Is talking tiles a new low? I suppose we could move onto your favourite grouting brand?:p

As long as the grout is ready mixed,anything to save a bit of time and effort.
